I love to paddleboard, run, and hike. I would love to take dogs on those adventures as well. I especially like to walk or hike with dogs.

A dog's home when homes away.

Pet care experience

Growing up with dogs, I cleaned up poop and washed them thoroughly. At 12 I began my pet care service within my neighborhood and served about 10 clients one with very specific medical needs. I am dedicated to creating a positive and comfortable atmosphere for your pet whether it be in your home or on a walk. Furthermore, I have experience in training and managing behaviors of dogs as I have dealt with many temperments of dogs. I am a natural when it comes to identifying and forming my service around the personality of the dog. Any direction given to me will be followed with the utmost importance and professionalism and maybe a few dog treats. My name is Laurel and I am excited to begin this joyous journey with you and your dog.

Laurel was an outstanding house and pet sitter. She communicated exceptionally well throughout her stay and regularly sent photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She was always responsive, professional, and easy to work with. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my Boston Terrier and home as if they were her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely hire her again in the future. Highly recommended!

Laurel and our six month old miniature dachshund, Ginger, really hit it off and had great fun together. Laurel was very attentive, responsible and loving with Ginger, and also took great care of our home. If we could give her more stars we definitely would! We’ll look Laurel up again and again when we are in need of her services. Anyone who engages Laurel will be well pleased and fortunate!

Laurel did a great job caring for our little boy Mac while we were away. She was very attentive to his needs and had great communication. We would not hesitate to have her house sit for us again in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
